Hey?@patrickposner, you were right. There was an error in the debug log:

I didn’t see the error before because the debug.txt was being cached and when I clicked it, it was incomplete.

It seems that because of that error, the job was cancelled. I cannot explain the random behavior though. As I mentioned before, sometimes the job completed ok, sometimes got cancelled after 5 minutes. May be the behavior has to do with this function, which seems to cancel the job if there is an error?

Anyways, as soon as I excluded the problematic page, the job started to work consistently.

Note, I have been using Simply Static since version 2.x, and haven’t had to exclude any URL (and I am pretty sure this problematic page had been there ). So it seems that something regarding the error handling changed in 3.x.

Thanks for your help.

Hey @patrickposner, thanks for your answer.

The debug log is the one that I pasted before, in my first post. No errors.

Diagnostic looks fine, everything is green.

After further testing, I have noticed that the behavior is random. Sometimes, the export works just fine; when it does, it takes ~1 hour.

But sometimes, it ends prematurely, after ~5 minutes. In those cases, what I can see is that after the export starts, a WP cron is created, named “wp_archive_creation_job_cron”, which runs every 5 minutes. I suspect that that is the one that ends the export prematurely, for some reason.

You mentioned “that’s usually a problem with either database caching or with WP-Cron”. WP-cron works ok, as far as I can tell. No error in logs related to it. In regard to database caching, we use W3 Total Cache; but for testing purposes, I have disabled it, but that didn’t help to fix this issue.

Since the behavior is random, it’s very hard to troubleshoot. Any other idea is very appreciated.

Thanks!
